Twitter Reacts As Man United Score 5 Goals In First Half vs Tranmere
Providing extreme joy to the supporters, Manchester United are overwhelmingly performing tonight with one of their best performances this season, having scored five goals even before half-time as they square off their horns against Tranmere in the FA Cup 4th round fixture.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer had failed to bring about the renaissance which was expected of him by the supporters and club officials equally when the Norwegian was appointed as the head coach on a permanent basis. Failing to acquire a firm hold in the Premier League this term, the 46-year-old has been the focal point of criticism for a while now.
Accordingly, it was understood quite earlier that securing the FA Cup would be the most desirable outcome for the manager and it seems the club are pretty keen on the Cup as they portray decent form in those fixtures. Having knocked out Wolverhampton in the 3rd round, the Mancunians advanced further as they now clash against Tranmere Rovers.
With Harry Maguire opening the scoring for his side in the 10th minute, the Red Devils have dazzled the audience at Prenton Park by marking a halftime scoreline of 5-0.
Consequently, the United fans are delighted as the stadium bounces with enthusiasm and Twitter flooding with numerous positive reactions.

I just text Jesse Lingard to say it looks like you and Ole have finally found your level. I’m still waiting for a reply.

Manchester United's average positions in the first half. Jones (4), Lindelöf (2) and Dalot (20) are deeper due to their defensive work but it is essentially a 5-man attack with Shaw (LW), Martial (LS), Lingard (CF), Greenwood (RS) and Dalot (RW). pic.twitter.com/gHptVlNeq9

Furthermore, the Mancunian side has been dominating in terms of possession and passing accuracy. The positive form and improvement would very well be in favour of Solskjaer, adding to the tremendous faith Ed Woodward had installed in him.
With the match having already sealed, the Red Giants continue their scoring momentum in the second half as well.
